particles through direct contact
with the atmosphere.
(wind, water and Ice)

Weathering
Breaking down of mineral or
rock material by entirely
mechanical methods.
Break Down for $200
Physical Break Down
The composition of the
weathered rock is changed.
Break Down for $300
Chemical Weathering
The process that moves
weathered sediments from
one location to another.
Break Down for $400
Erosion
When sediments stop traveling
by water or wind and settles out
and accumulates in one place.

Deposition
This happens to magma
and lava once they harden.
